My peace lily seems to have been declining in health since i brought her home from walmart. shes been repotted with a slightly larger pot since the roots were very tight and coming out of the drainage holes when i bought her, and ive been following Plantas advice on when to water. any advice on how to help her? or if i need to cut these browned blooms off?

Does anyone know if my pumpkin plant could be in trouble? This is the stem of the plant when I put it into the ground a couple months ago when it was a small plant the stem broke but it still grew and now it looks like this and the plant is completely healthy and producing female flowers now

Remove the mesh!! I canât stress this enough. Almost every plant Iâve purchased, this year in particular, has had a mesh pod surrounding its original roots. Itâs a cheap and easy way for the greenhouses to propagate but they donât remove them. Itâs like potting a pot inside another one. While some roots may be able to poke through many are left to rot because these pods also hold the moisture in the center. So while your outer soil is drying up the root ball and center are staying too moist leading to rotting roots and eventually killing your plants. đȘŽâïž

Since everyone has been SO amazing and helpful here, I thought Iâd go ahead with my *hopefully* last question about a plant issue. Iâve had my fiddle leaf for almost 4 years. I recently repotted into a bigger pot with new soil. Has drainage. He lives in a room with south and east windows, this is during the year EXCEPT summer he comes to the patio. This year he is looking ROUGHđŹHe has new growth but even that is looking ick. What have I done? Do i need new soil? Cut him back? Better location? On the deck heâs closer to the east and gets late afternoon/early evening indirect sun. Not a ton of sun, TBH. Iâm posting pics and the pic with my hand in it is the new growth. Any help is amazing! Thank you, plant friends!!đ±đ

My heart leaf philodendron is strugglingâit has yellow leaves and all the leaves have red streaks in them are curling. Is it overwatering, under watering, or something else completely?

Iâve had a hydroponic pothos for about a year and Iâm usually pretty good with watering but 2 weeks ago I forgot to somehow fill with water and its roots kinda dried then today they were all rotted?? Did I just screw my plant or is there coming back from this?? I had to remove lots of leaves too đ she looks so sad now

My polka dot plant has mold on top of the soil and Iâm not sure why. I water it twice a week and mist it with lemon water every few days to keep my cats away. The roots are also beginning to come out of the top. Do I need to repot it? I feel like itâs already in a relatively large pot for the plant and itâs sti very healthy and constantly growing.

Misting my marble peperomia today and noticed this spot in the first photo â it goes through the leaf and is squishy. Preliminary google is telling me it might be the ring spot virus? Really really hoping it isn't, but if it is, any suggestions would be helpful! It's only on that one leaf and it's the first time I've seen it. I got it from a local nursery a little over 2 months ago and I thought it was doing great since it's grown almost 2 inches and is putting out new leaves like a maniac

Can anyone tell me if this are gnat eggs, or something else? I bought from Walmart and didnât notice until I was home that it had gnats. I started treating with mosquito bit water (first was about 3 weeks ago) and I did again today but noticed these eggs. The spoon pic shows where I took one out and squashed it to see what it was. Iâm not sure what they are or what to do đ«

Why are her leaves curling?? She is root bound but I just got her so I didnât want to traumatize her with an immediate repot. Iâm watering her frequently as Planta says to keep her soil moist.
